Raising More By Mailing Less

It really IS possible, to raise more revenue while mailing less. And it's not that hard. But it does take a leap of faith for some folks. We've become mired in the same RFM formulas because we've always been told, "that's just how we do it." And there's nothing wrong with doing it that way. It works.

What if you could take a snapshot of your organization's donors and revenue at ANY GIVEN TIME - in less than 10 minutes - and know *exactly* where you need to focus? Some nonprofits are using a creative kind of A.I. - Actionable Intelligence that blends art and data science so easily that anyone can do it.

By using modern technology to take those old RFM models to the next level, nonprofits that take an A.I. leap of faith are finding they can:

* save money

* save time

* save stress

All while they:

* increase revenue

* increase retention

* and reduce mail

And the best part? Using data science is not nearly as scary as it sounds. It's definitely a mind shift, to be able to look at how your organization is doing at any given time and by any given parameter (overall revenue, retention, sustainers, first time givers, mid-level, major, or pretty much any section you want to examine and drill down into - you can now easily get to.)

But that's a good thing, right?

If you want to learn more about how nonprofits are using the art of Actionable data Intelligence to save money, time, and stress while they grow their organizations, check out DonorTrends CEO, Caity Craver, at the DMA Nonprofit Federation Conference this week (two sessions available, see below.)
